Well thanks for the best wishes. It is difficult to find what you seek, and there are multiple vectors to why, among them utilizing other people's content exacerbated by the networks on which that content is stored and their gate keeping rules as well, followed by the difficulties in compatibilities such as you mentioned about not being able to embed various distributors media players into blog posts and on and on.
But you are correct, while indirectly some of that may occur ON a live stream, such as in a reaction video, it is in and of itself, not "live streaming" to play recorded content to viewers, without associated content alongside it.
The storage costs for all the video are also astronomical, which is why on the billionaire backed networks could do it long enough to attract corporate advertisers who in turn foot the bills now, for companies like YourTool and Twitchiness.
But for me? Give someone a visual motion video outlet for their podcast, talk show, original music, or music lessons or political rantings for their countries side taking sider takers to listen to and argue about, or whatever, is good enough, and a chat room (which will improve over its current fledging get-something-up-and-running version) is requisite beside that so the audience can interact with the show host(s)
I'll figure out how I can make a living from it, thats definitely not forgotten, I have to eat, and this is and will be a full time job around the clock for the rest of its existence so... Its not like I am some kind of minimalist socialist anti-money weirdo, I am just sort of anti-being-coerced by somebody ELSES money. Last time I checked, that was akin to fascism.
The Last Nail Bender huh, I'd watch that movie.
